Applications
The IDEAL/Contex COUGAR G600 Basic Color Scanner
is a cost-effective color scanner with
programmable buttons for scanning, copying, and
emailing directly from the scanner. This scanner
is designed for the Architectural, Engineering,
Mapping, Sign Shops, Pre-press, Copy Ship, POP
and Display markets that handle large format
color graphics. The IDEAL/Contex COUGAR G600
Basic Color Scanner can be used for color
classification for vectorization, storage,
retrieval, conversion to CAD, populating an
online planroom, and scan-to-print. It can
efficiently rasterize drawings up to 36” wide
(E-Size) by any length on media up to 0.6”
thick. This scanner comes with WIDEmail software
for emailing scanned (and compressed) image
files. The IDEAL/Contex COUGAR G600 Basic can be
used stand-alone or as an integrated component
of a customized solution. This scanner is Energy
Star and RoHS Compliant.
Color Accuracy
The IDEAL/Contex COUGAR G600 Basic Color Scanner
creates images in photo realistic color, high
quality gray scale, and crisp, clear black and
white. Color is captured at 48 bits for maximum
color precision, passing the best 24 bits of
color data to the computer. This scanner is
front-loading, and scans with unparalleled
accuracy, +/- 0.1% in both the X and Y-axis to
ensure the most accurate scan possible. The
IDEAL/Contex COUGAR G600 Basic Scanner includes
a thirty-day timed out version of JETimage NET.
This copier interface takes advantage of the
scanners Dual 2-D Adaptive Enhancement features
with Area Diffusion Logic and Error Diffusion
Half-toning which allows documents containing
mixed photographic and line-art (including text)
areas to be captured with greater detail.
JETimage NET has advanced scan to print features
that support advanced layout options such as
paneling, tiling, and nesting of printed output
as well as tracking capability of paper and
copying usage. This new scanner incorporates the
3C Auto-Maintenance system that keeps the
cameras perfectly aligned, adjusted, and
calibrated for optimal image quality. The 3C
Auto-Maintenance system aligns and stitches the
cameras to a fraction of a pixel giving the
highest wide format image precision available.
The IDEAL/Contex COUGAR G600 Basic can easily be
upgraded to an IDEAL/Contex COUGAR G600 Plus
color scanner with a Smart Card Upgrade Kit
enabling users to gain faster color scanning
capabilities without incurring the cost of a new
scanning device.
Accuracy Lens Enhancement Technology
The IDEAL/Contex COUGAR G600 Basic Scanner uses
Accuracy Lens Enhancement Technology (ALE) that
electronically maintains 0.1% +/- 1 pixel
precision across any two points of the scan line
thus exceeding even the most rigid requirements.
With this scanner there is a very high grade of
precision stability in the scanned image.
High Performance Scanning
The IDEAL/Contex COUGAR G600 Basic Color Scanner
has variable resolution settings from 50 to
81200 dpi selectable in one dpi increments to
match user requirements. This scanner can scan a
typical E-Size monochrome original at 12.0”
per second at 400 dpi turbo and a typical E-Size
color original at 1.5” per second at 400 dpi
turbo. For scan-to-file applications, the IDEAL/Contex
COUGAR G600 Basic requires WIDEimage NET, the
operating software for scanning. The scanned
raster images obtained from the IDEAL/Contex
COUGAR G600 Basic Scanner can be edited in
raster or converted to DXF vector files with WiseImage,
an optional software package available from
IDEAL. The IDEAL/Contex COUGAR G600 Basic
Scanner supports Ultra-fast SCSI, FireWire, and
USB2 Connectivity.
Scan, Index, and Edit
The IDEAL/Contex COUGAR G600 Basic Scanner
supports color and monochrome scanning
applications. ScanOS provides
single-field indexing for every document
scanned, and automatically generates the
filename, time & date, and the computer
operator’s name to the database record. ScanOS stores drawings and index data in an ODBC
compliant archive in many formats including PDF,
TIFF, JPEG, and BMP. Edit drawings in raster
with the same ease as editing a CAD file using WiseImage,
an optional intelligent raster editing software
package from IDEAL. WiseImage is a
powerful drawing editor that performs raster to
vector conversion and OCR.
Scan, Share, and Print
Provide instant network access of scanned
drawings with IDEAL’s ArchiveCenter for
Workgroups. Archive large format drawings on
a company intranet or a secure, password
protected internet with IDEAL’s ArchiveCenter
for the Enterprise. Search, retrieve, view,
and print large format drawings using only a
standard web browser. ArchiveCenter can be
upgraded to IDEAL's Online PlanRoom for
bid management, project management, and ordering
drawings.
Looking to turn your inkjet into a digital
copier? Scan large format color originals with
heavy detail and print them out to any inkjet
plotter without losing any details. The IDEAL/Contex
COUGAR G600 Basic Scanner is the perfect
front-end to any Windows-based inkjet plotter.
Use the optional Copy Kit to mount your PC and
